the subject of yr photograph :

it can not just be what you choose to point yr lens at but how you choose to do the pointing.

Each glance becomes when (re)titled 'search'

We love what we photograph, for we want to preserve it forever.
We photograph in order to own, as we search in order to find.

re/presenting

representation is to death as communication is to life.

( & re-presentation is an attempt @ communication. )

time demarcated by substance

as in the amount of film left on the reel.

reality in a glance

photographers are excellent editors : to take a photograph is to interrupt a narrative & draw attention to the moment it imbues

The Pencil Story 1972 - 1973

I had this old pencil on the dashboard of my car for a long time. Every time I saw it, I felt uncomfortable since its point was dull and dirty. I always intended to sharpen it and finally couldn't bear it any longer and did sharpen it. I'm not sure, but I think that this has something to do with art.

( that which makes us uncomfortable in life [in reality, in truth or in fact(s)] must be mutable for action alleviates our anxiety )
